"Castaway might just be one of the best iterations of The Sims 2 on consoles yet." Said by Gamespot. The Sims 2 Castaway takes the Sims characters away from home and leaves them stranded on a desert isle. The castaways start their journey on a ship but after disaster strikes, they need to learn how to survive on the island until they can be rescued. Players need to create a shelter, care for their sims and solve puzzles to find a way off the island.

Steps

1

Create a Crew! Choose from a wide range of Sims - Auto Mechanic, Chef, Doctor, Musician, Teacher, Executive, or Park Ranger. Each one brings a unique Sim humor and quirkiness to your crew. Reunite members of your crew and build a thriving community.

2

Stay Alive! Help your Sim meet basic needs to survive. Your Sim will need to eat, sleep, socialize and more. Catch fish in the ocean or lakes using the fishing tools that you collect. Fruit is available on the island, but it will not fill the sims as well as fish and other food that has to be cooked.

3

Craft Everything! Create a new life from scratch. Develop tools, build shelter, craft furniture, create clothing, and make art and entertainment. This will make it easier to fulfill your sims' needs.

4

Eventually, decide if you want to Flourish or Escape! Build a life of comfort on the island or find a way to escape back to civilization.

5

Gather and Collect! Gather fish, trap animals, raise plants, collect shells, scavenge and decode treasure maps. This will open up new options and adventures in the game, and it will also be necessary at times.

6

Discover Diverse Islands! Explore a variety of new environments: beaches, caves, lagoons, jungle, plains, and volcanic mountains. This will make the game more fun for you!
